Titliya ,Sanka Devi, Parmehwari and all, Buaji gave these
names to Khushi but if you ponder upon,all of these are associated with
transformation ,a metamorphosis process .Butterfly , different crazy layers for
survival and Parmeshwari as Parvati ,Devi Maiya with tiger next to it to
control the transformation of nature for bringing new colors everyday by
opening layers upon layers.All these are bringing changes in Arnav's layered
nature and today's epi is showing that.Today's epi is my King's episode whose
shrewd and killer attitude along with his varying emotions showed the real
meaning of this story to me.Barun is simply maginificent...

"Kuch rishte ajeeb bandhan main bandhe hote hai"...[Some relations have a strange bond] ...Khushi will understand the pull of this later but he is realizing it today. Trust Binding accords need the link of trust but these
walls are shaking with Arnav's fall.His trust on Khushi is shaking his feet to
move forward.As I mentioned in 228,Shyam's words ""Khushiji, iss golmol ke chakkar
ko todiye, aur apne khayalon ko alag ki jiye aur phir sochiye"? are applying on him and this whole episode showing his
confused, conflicted, and quizzical side at each step in between his heart and
mind..He knows for sure Khushi's concerns and cares were so genuine but he is
getting entangled in his own web of painted pictures of her which is making him
flummoxed and ambiguous ever than before.He has patches of bandage which can't
cover his whole wound.Khushi took care of his office matters regarding with "Sethis"...,his
throat ,and covered him from Nani and Anjali.This much info he is processing
when his heart shows him her innocent and caring side that she can't even think
to commit anything against his sister but his mind directs him otherwise
because he has seen Khushi and Shyam together after Heer Ranjha which triggered his heart to pin her
down.That toned down by her silence and absence and his heart calmed down with
her glimpse after two days.Now he knows her concerns but he is equating em with
her "swami avatar" but his heart
beats for her true and genuine care..Excellent nuances and acting of Barun made
me spell bounded and helped me decoding his war within a lot in this epi.

1-Triquetra ,which
always remains in between Arnav-Khushi and Anjali because three of these are bonded
together tightly and Anjali is the epicenter who always keeps this accord
together in all weathers.

2-But there is
another temporary Triquetra Arnav-Khushi-Shyam [outsider] because here Khushi
is the epicenter but according to Arnav's brain he is the center because he is
fighting with two of them Khushi and Shyam because they want to ruin his Di's
life together.Arnav is tackling Shyam in his way till Shaym's next move but his
judgments against Khushi are proving wrong.All of his shrewdness is making him
damn confused and putting his intelligent aside in understanding Khushi's
innocence .

~"The greatest conflicts are not between two people
but between one person and himself."~ Garth Brooks

Anjali is the one who binds their accord as always and today she
tells him how Khushi took care of him all night and the moment
Anjali mentioned - "Humain khushi hai ke tumne apne liye eik aisa
jeevan saathi chuna hai jiske liye tumhari sehat aur tumhara khayal rakhna
sabse ziada zaroori hai", Arnav
couldn't match his eyes with Anjali's.A lot
of emotions like bewilderment, confusion, confliction, anger and slyness were
lingering in these seconds on his face over Khushi's acts .He was amazed to
know that his Di has not only accepted Khushi but also approved too.But He
knows the girl ,his Di loves is after her husband.He also has seen Khushi and
Shyaam's encounter twice, he is aware of her taking care of his family and
Anjali, now he knows she has taken care of him and he also has experienced that
Khushi knows deeply the meaning of his silence and managed to convey the
message he wanted to. All these factors are enough to challenge his
intelligence as Khushi said"baazi tou palat gayei
kyuonkeh fadak tou aapko pdta hai, pyar,mohabbat,ishq se..." and now he
has to change the game plan to come out of this confused circle and keep her on
her toes to justify his actions.

1st Triquetra Arnav
-Anjali-Khushi is getting over shadowed
by 2nd Triquetra Arnav-Khushi- Shyam here. I am going to join couple
of scenes here to get the bottom of this.Anjali's words," humare Chote apno ki
pareshani ko door karne keh liye jhoot bhi bol sakte hain." [our Chote
can lie for the ppl he cares for] ... are showing her sister's concerns to him
without knowing the reality of Arnav's relation with Khushi or his own equation
with Khushi from which he is very much unaware of too.His interaction with his
Di is totally different than his Khushi.Anjali is his sister and Khushi is the
one who is after his Di's marriage.He can't forget the Shyam and Khushi's
created image in his mind"Chup gaya hai..."[It
has been printed] ...But still he can't hide showing his Right , Command, Dominance,
and Control over Khushi.

Pondering
connected Dots: Payesh Mehndi when he comes late and became
ecstatic seeing Khushi worried for him and turns the table to relieve her from
that worrisome avatar"Tou tumhain kya fadak padta
hai."[Why does it matter to you]..and her abruptly confessing her
concerns makes the luckiest man of this planet.."Fadak
padta hai..."[It matters.]...But he answers his Di in a totally different
way by keeping his hawking eyes at his prey "waise
acha hua main gaya, pata toh chala mujhe
kitna miss kiya jata hai"[It's good to know how much I've been
missed by going away]...His approach towards different people and situation is
totally different.

We can see this
in future too when his anger remembering Shyam's words and Anjali's
stubbornness to bring him back makes him to break vase but when Khushi comes he
calms down just by her presence.Even connect this with his interaction as a
child to his mother by breaking the Rose plant and all.He reacts according to
his situation with different emotions and with his pure heart.Right now Khushi
is not standing at that purity pledge for him and he will react differently and
that exactly happened but Anjali is the foundation of their relation and today
again her advice is making him not only confused and but also conflicted with
his unaccepted emotions which only can see her purity from all sides.

When Khushi came with the tea, Arnav remembered Anjali's praised
words ""Humain khushi hai ke tumne apne liye eik aisa jeevan saathi
chuna hai jiske liye tumhari sehat aur tumhara khayal rakhna sabse ziada
zaroori hai" [I am happy you have selected the perfect partner
for yourself for whom your health and care is the upmost duty]...He hated to see
his Di approval for this gal who asked her hubby to leave her.His emotions
change right away and I loved seeing him gulping , folding the paper like he is
folding his vulnerability in his shrewdness by gulping his slightest guilt.He
has to keep playing with these two ppl who are after his Di.But he is making Khushi confused more than ever ,YES he wants to keep her sparring with him forever so she has a chance to make mistake "kitte dinno se janti ho mujhe"[since how long you've known me]... and he can take over this whole situation and honestly I felt for this poor soul here who is sinking in this shallow sand without any straw to hold on to.

Symbolism
and connection:Here comes his slip, his fall this morning right
after waking up... He knew and observed her care and concern for him but he
dejected himself from that and kept her at the same spot that she is a betrayal
and actor and that's all.I absolutely don't blame him.He is 200% right in his
way of thinking.

He wants Khushi to believe that he won this round
because he was tired of her
overdose of her LOVE. He knows Khushi's
concern was real but the epicenter of his anger is Anjali who is unaware of
Khushi's the fact that Anjali is unaware of Khushi astute nature. Barun's
expressions and my Psychology boring classes paid off here to understand
the real meaning of his actions . Love Love Love Barun today and that's why I
said it was his epi.

PONDERING
CONNECTED DOTS:Arnav's statement to Khushi
-"Pehele yeh bataao, poori raat
pareshaan hokar kaisa lagta hai? Kaisa laga bina galti kiye guilty feel
karna", .[How does it feel
to be at guilt without doing anything wrong ? ...how do you feel staying up all night being worried...haan] ...I love this
dialogue of Arnav because this is what
he was trying since yesterday, to make her feel that her actions always hurt
him . He wanted her to realize how her actions since guest house incident were
making him restless and at the top she never gave him a chance to justify
himself.The resignation day Khushi's words "aap haarte bahut bure hain Mr. Raizada, kyunki
haarne ke baad bhi aap yeh nehin manenge ki galti aapki thi". But
did she ever let him explain.

Then Teej and the store room, all these places he tried
to clear his side but she didn't let him.He has spent many nights up with guilt
.Even the night his heart first time got his beat , or the night when she was
being tortured being engaged with Shyam.But the most torturous on , their
wedding night when she was in shattered state by the pool without guilt and he
was on the recliner with the guilt.

I love Khushi who is more determined to
continue "Swami, pyar , ishq,mohabbat " act. I don't blame this girl who was ready to
be hungry and punish herself for her actions
but ends up having biscuit talk with Lakhmiji .How can any one blame her
for her irritations over this confused and conflicted nature guy.At least not
me...

Now when Anjali took him to her room and explained him to
meet the eye of his real action vs shrewd action.She took him to the ride which
always makes him emotional.She reminded him how he lied to her for making her
feel better and my grabber is his worry
over Anjali's words " iss liye keh hum jante hain tum
Khushiji ko iss tarah se" where he stopped
her right in the middle with the fear that she might know about their marriage.Barun's expressions throughout that scene are mind
blowing, simply fantabulous.

.Pondering
connected dots:This scene took
me straight to the night when Anjali met with an accident .He was totally
shattered and devastated but that day Anjali's advice made him come out from
his flirty shrewdness to embrace the courage to just follow the rhythm of his
heart,towards his LOVE ""Hum jisse sabse ziada pyaar
karte hain usey kabhi door jaane nahin dena chahiye, kisi bhi halaat main".[
We never let that person go away in any situation ,the one we love the most.]
and that...

Today, the same
way Anjali helps him to meet his own eye in front of the mirror"Isse pata chalta hai tumhein Khushiji ka kitna
khayal hai aur kitna, yeh toh shayad tum bhi nahin jaante chote", Arnav
couldn't meet his eyes in the mirror because he knows, he has hurt and crushed
Khushi's innocent heart one more time. He knows her concerns for him are
genuine and real and her eyes never lie to him , NEVER... Anjali one more time
showed him the way towards her, towards his own heart to meet this confusion
and confliction within and again one name slips through his concerned voice
"Khushi" without whom he can't live.

Pause
here: Loved the mirror use and reflections here. Especially the one
where Arnav turns back to the mirror and remembers the FBs of Khushi's concern and how he buried her
concerns in her fake acting to shatter her pure soul. Love when he lowers his
eyes for being so ashamed of his actions. Now he will use "Shyam's words to
dissect each situation to dilute his confusion and to solve his confliction and
that will help him later when he will be away from Khushi in abducted hands.

Symbolism and connection: The glass is broken on Arnav' side
which refers broken accords in his life since from his past and that is so
beautifully shown here.His past is full of it but he is trying hard to keep his
Di's life intact but his own is still shattered as his own shadow is at the top
of broken glass [Sohara this is for you],but Anjali's words"nahin jane daina chahiye" is going to mend his over time and he
will never let her go no matter what.

Other side on a light note, Mamiji is slowly slowly accepting her son's happiness and giving them space while these two are coming closer physically every time but how much by heart ,that is a different story.

Loved the kitchen scene for two reasons,

1-Anjali and Payal were both worried for their siblings and Anjali witnessed Khushi's genuine concern which remains always there even when she resents her later .

2-If Khushi was in the middle of these pillars and is the pillar herself keeping these two safe , standing at their positions , married and happy and all

.ArshiHamesha.IF-Sizzlerz

Thnx sohara for reading and commenting on 230.Glad you enjoyed it.She can never think to harm him, she wants answers only.But he did blackmailed her by using her family and that we will see in GH when she wil tell him I never take out my anger on your family and he will stop after that .Her war is with him and she never brings anyone else in it .That is what bothering him and he thinks this is an act from her but when she will say that "nah khabi karenge , aisa tou khabi hum soch hi nahin sakte" look at his expressions and guilt on his face.This is whole period is to understand and make a ground for next phase where he will not need any explanation and she will not have to prove her innocence .Crossing all barriers within Telepathy and all.

From the night of soaring high in love, like Arnav, we literally slip down into reality. Panicky loud Khushi looks on while Arnav is still riled up. Did he think she played another trick which caused him to fall? Well devi maiyya has already played her master move and made him fall in love. It doesn't matter if khushi's extra oil makes him fall on the floor. An almost uncharacteristic outburst from Arnav which lasted but a second... A grimace and calming down once he realizes Khushi was in fact trying to take care of him.

He does'nt think she did it willingly, he knows she is clumsy and all but he is annoyed by her extra swami stuff because he thinks she is acting and all.His dimag vs dil is separate

Looks like someone randomly decided we need a lighter tone in today's narration and the resulting snore was simply awkward. But why belittle such an awe inspiring display of love? If Anjali needed to witness Khushiji's concern there were multitude of ways much more subtle to show it than have her fall asleep this abruptly. I notice Payal also always asked Khushi "tum thik toh ho nah?". Of course it neither has Arnav's radiant charm or Barun's impeccable style .. though it does have a lot of elder sisterly concern...

I loved this scene for so many reasons ,Two elder sisters were worried for theor siblings and those were together in this game and this is going to set foundation for Anjali later even though she will be mad at her because she is the reason of Shyam's expel from RM but she knows Khushi is the one who can tame her Chote and takes care of her because she will see how Khushi misses him during kidnapping and all.Foundation needs to be strong and today first time she is seeing that

Near the poolside in their small little world .. an almost demure wife walks up behind Mr Raizada.. tender halting "Chai?" and you can almost feel something ticking in Arnav's brains.. In a deep voice masking hundreds of emotions causing hundreds of emotions "Swami nai kahogi?" ..calculated expression.."kaisa laga bina galati kiye guilty feel karna?" Unknowingly Arnav gives us a glimpse of what is in his heart. His belief that Khushi deserved all the sadness yet his inability to remain unaffected by it. The guilt eating him up from inside of causing pain. The har baar of how her tears discompose him. And in the foreground the fluid graceful movements of taking a glass of water and having his medicine. Maybe his subconscious self already realizing now he has all the more reason to take care of himself for the sake of one other.

He always takes care of others but this time he liked to be taken care of and he melted with that but when Anjali mentioned that she loved how he has chosen a right partner, game changed and he went back to terrace and all became an act fr him with his BG score.He played reverse psychology to be in the game against Khushi and Shyam.

A fourteen year orphaned adolescent could be this thoughtful and dependable. No surprises that the man we see today is this perceptive and selfless. A man who carries all burdens single handedly with such a high sense of morality in his unique way that he was in deep remorse when he did something unjust. Who forces himself to learn to say sorry and mean it. Not just with Khushi but he also apologized to Payal for breaking her wedding and to buaji and amma for unintentionally hurting them. A man capable of facing the truth head on. Be it the decision to tell di about Shyam's treachery or come clean with Lavanya once he realized how unfair he had been about their relationship. A man feared for his anger in office but also revered for his ability. Loyal to a mami whom everyone takes for granted. Kindhearted to a little stranger who wanted pigeons to fly to be reassured that her world would be all right. A man who had confidence to engage in astonishing gentle yet drop dead teasing courting, but also a boy too new and scared to bare his soul to the one he loved still brave enough to take the leap of faith. Ok am definitely digressing now..

This is what he is what Anjali explained to Khushi" you have to understand him in his ways without changing norms and he will be a different person .He is the most sensitive of all .I explained this before in one of my analysis.He is fragile than anyone.

Finally Shyam's face in the foreground and sinister music in the background leaves us with an unsettling feeling.. except that we know none of all this that Shyam did was ever significant enough to matter or actually ever made any sense at all..

He is back to Spidey mode to spin new webs

Excellent Rhea,

Very thoughtful take and indeed Barun nailed it and his expressions made me understand things better,My answers are in between

Thank you Faiqa . If you are calling it thoughtful then it must have been that .

All your comments were interesting specially about this being the foundation of the trust Anjali has that Khushi is the right choice for her chote. When a new bride goes into her husband's house it is through these small gestures that she manages to win everyone's heart.The actual actions maybe forgotten but the feelings remain even years after as she becomes such an integral part of the home that it is impossible to imagine it without her.

Arnav's mind is a vortex of incisive thought. As much as I'm
analyzing his character it seems to me that it's written like a butterfly's
wings of gossamer, very delicate and very intricate. He is not ostensible like
most of the people, but a very genuine and giving person. He claims that he
hates khushi, but despite that he is always around her to ensconce her, or to
save her from any distress or calamity. By keeping the facade of the hate mask,
he is the most caring soul. And today's episode is all about that. His love and
care for his family proved several times that he is a much better person that
he let on in the world. And this world of
pretense it's rare to find such people.. Though he is a bit penchant for
Anjali, but the circumstances made him like that. He lost too much in his short
span of life what made him over possessive for his mother like sister.

Well written Sohara. All of us are loving this paragraph

Khushi is awe-inspiring; what she has done, she has made him
slip on the floor! To give him more comfort she put oil on his head when he was
sleeping. But she didn't realize that she accidentally dropped some oil on the
floor. After relapsing, Arnav sees the oil there. Apparently he gets flagrant
in rage, "are you crazy?" he knows she was doing it all to comfort him, but he
is also annoyed at her extra care.

Two Raizada bahus are already in the kitchen, preparing
breakfast. Anjali comes there, she is happy that Arnav is fine now. Now they
have to take care of his diet and medicine properly. While she was talking with
Payal, they hear the sound of snoring. When they look back they see that Khushi
is sleeping in a standing position. Not impossible for sanka devi who can sleep
in taekwondo style and can eat bowls full of food all by herself! Anjali is
baffled to see her like that. khushi tells them that she didn't sleep whole
night to took care of Arnav. Anjali gets elated to hear this. She cares her
cheek lovingly; finally her chottey's life is settled. He has got the perfect
life partner who takes care of him so well. Payal is also worry for her baby
sister; she gives her ginger tea. Before taking a sip Khushi thinks that she
should give Arnav this tea, so that he will feel better. Seeing such tender
love of Khushi for her brother makes Anjali delectable again.

Babli thinks Akash is admirable. While playing scrabble with
him she makes this word to describe Akash. This little devil is infatuated to
his much older cousin. When Payal intrudes their game time with her breakfast,
she gets annoyed on Payal. She is not affable to Payal at all. She addresses
Payal by name. Akash sweetly tells her to call Payal vhabi. But babli didn't
like this. Akash suggests her to call her bhabs then. Though she agrees, but
gets jealous again, when Akash made a word "cute" for Payal. Mami also joins
them. Payal wants to make a four letters word what ends with "E". Akash understands
it and makes the word "Love" with the letter. What make both Babli and mami
annoyed. To humiliate Payal, mami makes the word khoon bhari tang. Mami's act
against disgruntled me. It was not nice to humiliate her DIL in front of a kid.
What lesson she is teaching to her small niece? But I loved how Akash consoled
Payal with a comforting pat on her shoulder. Mami tells Babli that Payal is
feeding her fattening food to make her fatter and she will remain slim and
trim. She takes Babli with her to feed salad. Akash beckons her a comforting
gesture. Before leaving Babli reminds Akash of their plan to watch movie.

So Payal is not that
sharmilee, what we thought. She was expressing her love sweetly in front of her
mean MIL. Good go girl. Loved your attitude. haha great obersevation

Anjali catches Arnav in the hall. She looks scrumptious and
content. Khusi awoke whole night to take care of his brother. She also knows that
Arnav is aware of this too.

"Pata he di."

How gently he said this with a mixture of annoyance and a bit
of admiration. Only my sexy boy can deliver such dialogue so accurately! She is
so happy that he chose the perfect life partner, who takes care of him so well.
Now she is making ginger tea for him. Arnav cogitates to hear that. He recollects
how Khushi took care of him whole night. She atoned more than her guilt. He feels
a pang of compassion for her. He doesn't want her to feel guilty.

Khushi comes by the poolside to give Arnav tea. She is still
in compunction. Anjali's words reverberate in his mind that Khushi is so
concern of his health. His astute mind concocts something. When khushi gives
him the medicine he says her,"Swami nahi kahogi." (won't you call me
swami?) His caramel eyes crinkle in humor,
playfulness gathers at his lips.
khushi is not in a mood to play prank. She is still in embroilment to play with
his health. Arnav wants to delineate his illness fake to her.

uff.. Love the expression of the eyes that you captured. Perfect shot

"So my idea worked."
He adds wryly with his lips curving humorously.

Khushi perturbs to hear his sarcastic way of talking.

"Now tell me how does it feet to remain tensed whole night
long. How is it to feel guilty without committing even any mistake."

He moves away to put the cup on the table and again comes
closer to her. there is a sheer conceit in his demeanor.

"Now tell me you know me for how many days? Forget it,
sometimes it's difficult to know some people."

He is trying to mislead her. Khushi's ambiguity is
increasing.
"Nothing happened to me yesterday night."
He quips her with a sardonic smile, as if he also played prank with her.

"surprise? Right? I did take my medicine. I was not hungry
and top it all, I didn't faint as well. Everything was a pretense. pretense,
understand?" He says curling his lips derisively. Confusion is clouding the hazel
depths.

He turns back in a perfunctory manner. Khushi still can't
believe that he feigned it all. She says in a quick repartee,
"aap kitna chalak ho." (how clever you are!)

"chalak nahi, shatir. After all I'm Arnav Sigh raizada"..he
is lofty in his tone.

He moves away, but swivels in an instant to see her
expression.

Khushi gazes at him in resentment and a mlange of confused,
chaotic thought is running through her mind.

Anjali overhears their convo. She is annoyed to hear his
shenanigan.

Anjali thinks to show her brother his real caring nature
what is shrouded in secrecy. She brings Arnav in her room and shows him their
old childhood pic. This is the only belonging they got with them when they left
sheesh mahal. And it's broken. Is it an indication of their shattered past?
Faiqa can tell it better. But why didn't she fix it?

"it's been broken like this since then." Arnav adds.

"I don't know what I've learnt in these past days. But one
thing I learnt for sure. And that is to catch your lies."

Arnav doesn't get her sarcastic way of talking. Anjali
continues,

" some years back, this frame was broken when I dropped it.
but you said you dropped it. why?"

Arnav turns away from her to hide his face so that he can
lie. But Anjali doesn't let him lie, because she knows the reason; he didn't
want to make her sad. The only souvenir of their childhood is broken; he can't
make his di tensed. Really, the abyss of Arnav's love for his di is
unfathomable. She starts to talk about Khushi. But she can't complete as a
panic invades his thought. Good catch

khushi, khushi ko kya?'

Finally Anjali reaches to her point. She turns him towards
the mirror to see his reflection there.

ajj bhi humari chote ka jhalak in akho mei nazar ate hai.
Even today I see the glimpse of my chottey in theses eyes, who just can't tolerate
to see his closest people in any trouble or hurt. So to get rid off this
feelings, my chottey also can lie. Khushi is in compunction for whatever
happened. Whether she doesn't feel guilty, you lied to her, that you were fine.
So that Khushi doesn't feel bad."

She wants to make him realize that how much he cares her.

"Even you don't know how much."

Anjali completely enthralled me in this episode. She seems
really can read her brother's mind. She always was an astute woman. When Arnav
brought La to RM, she asked him again and again, was he sure about La? She knew
very well La was not her bro's choice, that's why she uttered that saanse
rukhnewala dialogue. I hadn't thought of that converation about La but now that you mentioned it that makes sense. I remmeber her saying that in anger Arnav never makes the right decision and then regrets later.

Anjali left after showing him his real image behind the
faade. Arnav looks at his reflection on the mirror. Di's words are
reverberating in his ears, he is neither able to fathom his own mind, nor
decipher the reason behind his pretense. Why he lied to her; not to make her
feel guilty! Unbeknownst to himself, she had resided in his heart and seeped
deep in his soul, slowly stealthily and with infinite gentleness. So his caring
is leaning towards khushi.

Arnav's pretence worked well on Khushi. She is guilt free
now, pacing back and forth in her room and talking to laxmi, who is now sitting
on their bed comfortably. She is mad at Arnav. Good that he told her the truth
otherwise she planned to atone by starving whole day. She doesn't have to
starve any more. Her mouth and stomach are back in action. She will go right
now to fight with him. Suddenly she realizes that he wants; to make her fight
with him. But she will not fight; instead she will be persistent in her loving
wife drama. Because she thinks it's really affective.

"Hum uske zindegi mai itni mithas ghul denge ki unki haar
saans uske chasni mei dubi huyi mithai ki tarah lage. I'll pour so much sweet
in his life that he will feel that his life is sugar coated sweet. Now laad
governor will not take diabetes medicine only, he has to take injection as
well. I'll win in the next ride. Swami."

She laughs gleefully and puts the dupatta on her head.

Shyam is trying to find a way to get Arnav's locker key. He
is trying to sneak in his room when he goes to the bathroom. Anjlai who was
bringing juice for Arnav, looks at his room in incredulity. Did she see Shyam?

plz ignore typos

the wording of this song is just perfect for Arnav's present state of mind.

Sohara in this write up I kept getting distracted staring at the wonderful pictures you put up. Very very nice selection .Your description of Arnav and also how well Anjali understood him from the beginning was lovely. have some comments above as well.

Oh and the overlay on the vm with the flowers and the stars is so so nice isn't it? Amazing how you find such great videos.

My first try at making a gif. This scene always captivated me, The raw untamed emotions yet the tenderness at the end. This scene felt like what unforgettable novels were made off. And the actors.. Uff iss pyaar ko kya naam doon?

cheek lovingly; finally her chottey's life is settled. He has got the perfect
life partner who takes care of him so well. Payal is also worry for her baby
sister; she gives her ginger tea. Before taking a sip Khushi thinks that she
should give Arnav this tea, so that he will feel better. Seeing such tender
love of Khushi for her brother makes Anjali delectable again.

Babli thinks Akash is admirable. While playing scrabble with
him she makes this word to describe Akash. This little devil is infatuated to
his much older cousin. When Payal intrudes their game time with her breakfast,
she gets annoyed on Payal. She is not affable to Payal at all. She addresses
Payal by name. Akash sweetly tells her to call Payal vhabi. But babli didn't
like this. Akash suggests her to call her bhabs then. Though she agrees, but
gets jealous again, when Akash made a word "cute" for Payal. Mami also joins
them. Payal wants to make a four letters word what ends with "E". Akash understands
it and makes the word "Love" with the letter. What make both Babli and mami
annoyed. To humiliate Payal, mami makes the word khoon bhari tang. Mami's act
against disgruntled me. It was not nice to humiliate her DIL in front of a kid.
What lesson she is teaching to her small niece? But I loved how Akash consoled
Payal with a comforting pat on her shoulder. Mami tells Babli that Payal is
feeding her fattening food to make her fatter and she will remain slim and
trim. She takes Babli with her to feed salad. Akash beckons her a comforting
gesture. Before leaving Babli reminds Akash of their plan to watch movie.

So Payal is not that
sharmilee, what we thought. She was expressing her love sweetly in front of her
mean MIL. Good go girl. Loved your attitude.

Anjali catches Arnav in the hall. She looks scrumptious and
content. Khusi awoke whole night to take care of his brother. She also knows that
Arnav is aware of this too.

"Pata he di."

How gently he said this with a mixture of annoyance and a bit
of admiration. Only my sexy boy can deliver such dialogue so accurately! She is
so happy that he chose the perfect life partner, who takes care of him so well.
Now she is making ginger tea for him. Arnav cogitates to hear that. He recollects
how Khushi took care of him whole night. She atoned more than her guilt. He feels
a pang of compassion for her. He doesn't want her to feel guilty.

Khushi comes by the poolside to give Arnav tea. She is still
in compunction. Anjali's words reverberate in his mind that Khushi is so
concern of his health. His astute mind concocts something. When khushi gives
him the medicine he says her,"Swami nahi kahogi." (won't you call me
swami?) His caramel eyes crinkle in humor,
playfulness gathers at his lips.
khushi is not in a mood to play prank. She is still in embroilment to play with
his health. Arnav wants to delineate his illness fake to her.

"So my idea worked."
He adds wryly with his lips curving humorously.

Khushi perturbs to hear his sarcastic way of talking.

"Now tell me how does it feet to remain tensed whole night
long. How is it to feel guilty without committing even any mistake."

He moves away to put the cup on the table and again comes
closer to her. there is a sheer conceit in his demeanor.

"Now tell me you know me for how many days? Forget it,
sometimes it's difficult to know some people."

He is trying to mislead her. Khushi's ambiguity is
increasing.
"Nothing happened to me yesterday night."
He quips her with a sardonic smile, as if he also played prank with her.

"surprise? Right? I did take my medicine. I was not hungry
and top it all, I didn't faint as well. Everything was a pretense. pretense,
understand?" He says curling his lips derisively. Confusion is clouding the hazel
depths.

He turns back in a perfunctory manner. Khushi still can't
believe that he feigned it all. She says in a quick repartee,
"aap kitna chalak ho." (how clever you are!)

"chalak nahi, shatir. After all I'm Arnav Sigh raizada"..he
is lofty in his tone.

He moves away, but swivels in an instant to see her
expression.

Khushi gazes at him in resentment and a mlange of confused,
chaotic thought is running through her mind.

Anjali overhears their convo. She is annoyed to hear his
shenanigan.

Anjali thinks to show her brother his real caring nature
what is shrouded in secrecy. She brings Arnav in her room and shows him their
old childhood pic. This is the only belonging they got with them when they left
sheesh mahal. And it's broken. Is it an indication of their shattered past?
Faiqa can tell it better. But why didn't she fix it?

"it's been broken like this since then." Arnav adds.

"I don't know what I've learnt in these past days. But one
thing I learnt for sure. And that is to catch your lies."

Arnav doesn't get her sarcastic way of talking. Anjali
continues,

" some years back, this frame was broken when I dropped it.
but you said you dropped it. why?"

Arnav turns away from her to hide his face so that he can
lie. But Anjali doesn't let him lie, because she knows the reason; he didn't
want to make her sad. The only souvenir of their childhood is broken; he can't
make his di tensed. Really, the abyss of Arnav's love for his di is
unfathomable. She starts to talk about Khushi. But she can't complete as a
panic invades his thought.

khushi, khushi ko kya?'

Finally Anjali reaches to her point. She turns him towards
the mirror to see his reflection there.

ajj bhi humari chote ka jhalak in akho mei nazar ate hai.
Even today I see the glimpse of my chottey in theses eyes, who just can't tolerate
to see his closest people in any trouble or hurt. So to get rid off this
feelings, my chottey also can lie. Khushi is in compunction for whatever
happened. Whether she doesn't feel guilty, you lied to her, that you were fine.
So that Khushi doesn't feel bad."

She wants to make him realize that how much he cares her.

"Even you don't know how much."

Anjali completely enthralled me in this episode. She seems
really can read her brother's mind. She always was an astute woman. When Arnav
brought La to RM, she asked him again and again, was he sure about La? She knew
very well La was not her bro's choice, that's why she uttered that saanse
rukhnewala dialogue.

Anjali left after showing him his real image behind the
faade. Arnav looks at his reflection on the mirror. Di's words are
reverberating in his ears, he is neither able to fathom his own mind, nor
decipher the reason behind his pretense. Why he lied to her; not to make her
feel guilty! Unbeknownst to himself, she had resided in his heart and seeped
deep in his soul, slowly stealthily and with infinite gentleness. So his caring
is leaning towards khushi.

Arnav's pretence worked well on Khushi. She is guilt free
now, pacing back and forth in her room and talking to laxmi, who is now sitting
on their bed comfortably. She is mad at Arnav. Good that he told her the truth
otherwise she planned to atone by starving whole day. She doesn't have to
starve any more. Her mouth and stomach are back in action. She will go right
now to fight with him. Suddenly she realizes that he wants; to make her fight
with him. But she will not fight; instead she will be persistent in her loving
wife drama. Because she thinks it's really affective.

"Hum uske zindegi mai itni mithas ghul denge ki unki haar
saans uske chasni mei dubi huyi mithai ki tarah lage. I'll pour so much sweet
in his life that he will feel that his life is sugar coated sweet. Now laad
governor will not take diabetes medicine only, he has to take injection as
well. I'll win in the next ride. Swami."

She laughs gleefully and puts the dupatta on her head.

Shyam is trying to find a way to get Arnav's locker key. He
is trying to sneak in his room when he goes to the bathroom. Anjlai who was
bringing juice for Arnav, looks at his room in incredulity. Did she see Shyam?

sohara,

his character is like butterfly wings of gossamer... intricate. i loved that thought and choice of words.

this episode intrigues me, it had a beauty, a revelation... such deep deep sweetness, sweeter than that chashni she mentions at the end... i wondered why they wanted to show this side of asr though. was it to show him that he loved kkg or to show us what finely crafted character he is...

enjoyed your take and interpretations.

babli's infatuation... had they found a natural and sensitive way to touch upon it, might have been really interesting but the way it was... uff, painful.

khushi's stomach and mouth both back in action.

and that caramel eyes crinkle line with playfulness gathering around his mouth line... epic.

My first try at making a gif. This scene always captivated me, The raw untamed emotions yet the tenderness at the end. This scene felt like what unforgettable novels were made off. And the actors.. Uff iss pyaar ko kya naam doon?

uff aarwen, lovely gif ... i have still no idea how to do these things teehee. katelyn has tried her level best to get me going... alas alas.

and those early days of ipk... nothing comes close to them. tight screenplay... rampaging attraction, out of the world anger and sanak... that was teh thing... asr and khsuhi were perfectly paired... gussa and sanak were sublimely real and in divine contrast. neither tried to be sexy, yet defined that four letter word.

this scene was how unbelievable, tell me... and after this the scene of them in agony, she in tears and he in the grip of an unknown pain. those slats through which anjali saw him in episode 230, we saw him feel things thinking of her in 80... i thought of it as i was looking at anjali.

found these on my 80 take.

the class and quality of ipk those days was something else. remember khushi's entry? sanaya was spectacularly natural and convincingly sanka ridden then... no excessive amounts of dialogue or set up were required. she got khushi, just like he got asr. something about sanaya's sanak has been messed with... suddenly too elaborate, added on, not internal and essential... whenever i write these days, this interferes, i can't hide it and lie and say, no no i get it perfectly. he remains the man i started with, she is somehow changed...

the door opens, he is all thunder and rage, she thinks he had left, and even in her obvious terror she looks out toward the porch in that comic vein...then back at him, composes herself, sidesteps him and tries to disappear.. so so natural.
